My story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my Just Giving page.

At school I could just about run round the school field once so i never thought i would ever consider taking on 26 miles. Over the last few years running challenges have gone from 5k to half Marathons. The next challenge is the full marathon.

After 2 unsuccessful ballot applications the Polly Parrot Appeal have given me the opportunity to run for them and raise money for the Children's A&E Department at Basildon Hospital.

On Sunday I completed the Virgin London Marathon in 5 hours and 20 minutes. Huge thank you to everyone who donated.
